Whitejets
Hello. Did anyone hear anything about Whitejets private jet company?
I can't find suitable information on the web.
Thanks in advance!
"Europe's most innovative Private Jet Airline is arriving in Lisbon.
WhiteJets have ordered over $1Bn of aircraft for its European operations; the entire company will be based here in Portugal at our state-of-the-art facilities in Oeiras. We will operate the finest fleet of private jets in the world - you can be part of this."

Hi Ferratini
According some rumours they are strongly backed-up by a Mexican Millionaire and some Switzerland Credit/Investors Banks. One of main goals could be dethrone the empire until now ruled by NetJets on the Jet-Sharing Fraction Policy.
Someone said on an Aviation Board that they had already signed a LOI with Bombardier for the acquisition of a vast number of Lears, in a 1 Billion Dollars deal!
They should start flying around the first months of 2009.

Thanks Janet. That link makes it all SO much clearer
(Just kidding)
An interesting story and one that will be closely watched by many should it materialise. A company looking to break the NJE monopoly? Even among the lower end of the bizjet market it'll be a scrap worth watching.

"based here in Portugal at our state-of-the-art facilities in Oeiras" = 1 km away from NetJets Operations Centre, so recruiting should be easier
"We will operate the finest fleet of private jets in the world" = the only jets left that we can get for 2009 is the unloved L60
"Europe's most innovative Private Jet Airline" = this should be interesting...
I think NJ may feel that they own that accolade
"They should start flying around the first months of 2009" = perfect timing for the downturn

No, that's another company. Name escapes me. 'We'll Fire You At The Drop Of A Hat Ltd' or something along those lines.
Whitejets (I'm told) is being put together by Smeagol* aka JB.
* Not that one, another one. Not your boyfriend. Gawd this is confusing.
Edit. DM's company is TTC.

It links in with this:

I think NetJets should be more worried about them stealing staff initially. It wont take much to treat your staff better than NetJets.

I heard a funny story today about why he got that car but that's dragging the thread off topic.
A thought occurs to me though. DM operating out of Lisboa. JB operating out of Lisboa. It's a small apron down there for the biz-jets, they're bound to meet and I'd love to be a fly on the wall if JB ever gets going. No love lost between those two.

Go on Flinty old boy do tell the story about the Ferrari, would love to race him in it!! Heeeehee. Just out of interest i get the feeling few will be jumping out of the Netjets Office for whitejets. Is being discussed by people at length and they see it as a risk. Lets face it unless the backer no less than Carlos Slim Helu they could be struggling.
